I question the thought process behind having known covid positive patients hanging out in the ED waiting room until a room is ready for them.

I was going to go to an Urgent Care for a flu shot, but their website says "if you think you have COVID-19, walk right in for treatment!"

Had two pfizer, got a moderna yesterday. Pfizer shots were just a mildly sore arm for a day, not the same with moderna. Woke up today with a super sore shoulder and what feels like a minor cold, slight fatigue, chills, body ache. Not terrible, but just bad enough where if I had work i'd be unable to focus and would've called in sick

Yeah, the moderna shot gave me the same deal. My shoulder felt like lead and a I had a serious malaise for two days.

If you can get real N95s right now that's great but there isn't a huge difference between the two in terms of actual protection as long as you're getting a reputable brand that cares about quality control.

insufferable
I mean in theory they could have a roni waiting room set up, but I doubt it (oh the liability of you putting a neg patient in there to wait for test results and they catch it from stewing in the pit).

I could go look, but LOL no thanks I will stay 1,600 feet away here in my safe secure MRI bunker.

Living in the flyover breadbasket of the USA is pretty great. We still have full grocery stores and great meat, fruit, and vegetables. We just need to blow the Mississippi bridges and the mountain roads. A wall and trenches along the Missouri/kansas/oklahoma/Arkansas border is all we need. That Illinois/Wisconsin border will be hot, but we will overcome the coasties.

Who is flyover now will be the battle cry

Take in Illinois and Wisconsin. The people of the United States are cow people. Where goes the cows goes the nation.

As long as it's a legit brand the differences between KF94s, KN95s, N95s and the European standard isn't going to make a huge difference.

The American federal government is totally incapable of doing nationwide efforts. Not even because of ideological reasons (though ideology is part of why we got to this point), it just simply doesn't have the capacity to do the mass hiring and systemic logistics necessary, the system is far too rusted

I can sort of see that depending on face shape the headband style straps might help keep it a little more snug but generally yes these are all very good. I am disappointed there is no child sized half-face respirator my son wants to be darth vader at school all day like his Dad

From Aaron Collins' reviews it looks like the performance of N95s and KN95s are pretty similar. From my experience the real mask difference is between earloops and elastic headbands. The fit of having two headbands is SO MUCH better than having earloops. There are headband style KN95s but N95s can only have headbands so I just buy N95s to avoid accidentally buying the earloops style masks.

My brother works at the VA, and last year they were trying to dump off contact tracing onto their administrative staff in exchange for unlimited overtime, but I don't think there were many takers

Too dangerous for a full sensory injection... That level of shitposting means they're almost non-human!
"struggled to staff" is an interesting one when I saw depts asking for contact tracing volunteers instead of, you know, hiring people
also outdated data systems is a fun euphemism for "all for-profit EHR is trash by design"
